Elizabeth was born on February 15, 1919 to John and Anna (Kleeman) Klingler in Lefor, ND. She was raised and educated in the Selfridge area. Being a farm girl she walked or rode a horse to the 1 room country school, Golden Wealth. She married Albin Vollmuth in Selfridge on October 8, 1935. She was the quintessential farm wife; she raised her family and helped on the farm alongside her husband. Her family was central in her life and taking care of them was her main goal. In 1940 they moved to San Francisco, CA before returning in 1945 to the family farm in Selfridge. Albin passed away on July 2, 1968.

Elizabeth was a member of the Christian Mothers of Selfridge. She had a wonderful sense of humor with an ability to tell great stories but she was also a jokester and would be the life of any gathering and was quite the social butterfly. Elizabeth loved to visit about her family to her friends and tell her grandchildren stories about their parents. She liked to sew and do handicrafts, she was also a wonderful cook and baker, kuchen being one of her favorite things.

Elizabeth will be deeply missed by her daughter, Marie (Milt) Mosset, Apple Valley, CA; her sons, Richard (Mary), Hot Springs, SD, James (Sherry), Biloxi, MS, George (Margaret), Buffalo, ND, Nick (Debbie), Selfridge, ND, Jack (Jolene) Conifer, CO, Jerry ( Deb), Lakewood, CO, Fred (Bernie), Mandan, ND and Pat (Lisa) Cottage Grove, MN; daughter-in-law, Pam Vollmuth, Stanton, ND; 27 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great-grandchild.
